Less than a month now until the state election and the announcements from the political parties are coming thick and fast.
It is clear that housing availability and affordability is front and centre for all of them.
HIA calls on all political parties to back practical, achievable reforms that unlock land, rebuild the workforce, reduce red tape and taxation and invest in the future of housing supply and affordability.
These are the key ingredients to restore confidence, create jobs, and ensure that home ownership remains within reach for all South Australian families.
The Housing South Australians, HIA Election Imperatives document sets out simple and effective measures that need to be implemented to solve our housing crisis. I commend it to you.
